Great teams to work with
Regional Sales Manager (Current Employee) - Atlanta, GA - November 10, 2021
Splunk has a great culture, nice work life balance, and great collaboration between the teams. However, always changing procedures and sometimes no one really knows what to do internally.

I've met some of the best people I've ever worked with
Confidential (Current Employee) - Plano, TX - October 6, 2021
I have to say the people are what make Splunk amazing. Sure, it's a great product that has a large footprint globally - and it continues to grow & succeed. But the PEOPLE that are hired are by far the best I've ever worked with. Typically sales can be high strung, demanding and overall not pleasant 100% of the time. I've worked in support at Splunk for several years and I've never once had a negative interaction with a person in sales. And I covered globally over the years.....
Pros
Good perks, free meals and stocked breakroom. Supports remote employment

Vote Union Yes
Account Manager (Current Employee) - Atlanta, GA - August 13, 2021
Management treats the workers very poorly especially through this last year. It is come to our attention that we could unionize and use our right of collective bargaining to improve conditions!
Pros
Food
Cons

Hyper growth, well paid
Operations Manager (Current Employee) - San Francisco, CA - February 22, 2021
Splunk continues to operate in hyper growth mode with lots of opportunity and upside from a career and stock perspective. However, the pace of change is insanely fast and leadership is getting worse and worse at managing changes across an increasingly growing employee base (ie major reorgs every quarter, teams being created and merged and completely disbanded, new companies being acquired left and right, etc)
Pros
Pay, leadership, product
Cons
Work life balance, no change management

Jobs at Splunk
Great company
Enterprise Inside Sales Executive-Named Accounts (Former Employee) - Plano, TX - May 12, 2020
One of the best companies I’ve worked for. They treat their employees like gold and you are paid well if you exceed your goals. They have a great work life balance and the best people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.

Great products and vision but going through growing pains
Sr. Channel Marketing Manager (Current Employee) - Austin, TX - April 3, 2020
Splunk has been a great company for years and it is growing rapidly. With that come growing pains, new leadership that does not fit the culture, unclear direction and silos.
It is not easy to advance or find another career opportunities within.
The products and CEOs long-term vision, however, are great.

Come for the job, stay for the money
Design Team Member (Former Employee) - San Francisco, CA - February 9, 2020
A tech company that resists growing up. Why should they? So far Splunk's making money hand over fist. Commitment to employees and breakthrough thinking is deeply lacking. Very little is thought through by executives or managers. Sales and marketing are paramount; engineers hold much product development power. Diversity is strongly promoted but not fully supported beyond display to the world. Quite a disappointment. Many hang on for the big paychecks and bonuses.

Ageist and insecure. Unprofessional and inexperienced management.
Technical Writer (Former Employee) - Plano, TX - October 6, 2019
Management is young, inexperienced, and untrained. Massive growth in a short time frame led to many technical employees promoted without the correct skills to manage. Company is therefore led by a contracted third party company (also young and clueless) that is only interested in keeping their contract. Management is not interested in solutions. Lack of experience results in extreme insecurity among management. They hired and fired four veteran contractors (for a long-term contract) within a month. This is not a place anyone, particularly a seasoned contractor, should be.
Pros
Video games, ping pong table. Never saw them used once. Free snacks.
Cons
Video games and ping pong table are window dressing to convince employees of a relaxed environment, but it is a pretense. It is not collaborative or welcoming.
